Smooth muscle gap-junctions allow propagation of intercellular Ca2+ waves and vasoconstriction due to Ca2+ based action potentials in rat mesenteric resistance arteries
The role of vascular gap junctions in the conduction of intercellular Ca2+ and vasoconstriction along small resistance arteries is not entirely understood. Some depolarizing agents trigger conducted vasoconstriction while others only evoke a local depolarization. Here we use a novel technique to inv...
